As I thought to myself

I kept thinking and thinking.
I wondered what was wrong.
I wondered what went right.
Have you ever realise that the actions and events that took place were faults of your own?
Your ego and pride.
Is the reason things happened that way?

I thought of several things that night.
And realise that all I can do now,
Is bite onto the bitter humble pie.
Making sure it leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
So I'll remember.
My ego and pride will be my downfall.
It will be the reason why no one will be close to me.
It will be the reason why I'll feel empty.

I laugh it off. Even with nothing, I am still me.
For all that I have lost, I gained much more.

For that is just me.
What a shame it had to be.
